Tranmere pay the penalty as Cardiff City spot their way to the F.A. Youth Cup Quarter-Final
Cardiff City Youth progressed to the quarter-finals of the F.A. Youth Cup and a home clash with either Birmingham City or Crewe Alexandra following a dramatic shoot out win over Tranmere Rovers at Ninian Park tonight.
Two hours of football including extra time failed to produce any goals sending the tie into penalties. Cardiff must have feared the worst when they missed their third penalty but Tranmere missed their fourth sending the sides to the final kicks at 3-3 but, incredibly, both missed including Tranmere knowing that a score would have seen them through.
After that, both sides scored until in the 7th round of kicks, with the game now at sudden death, Cardiff converted theirs to nudge 5-4 in front but Wirral lads missed again.
Well done to all involved.

Cardiff City vs Tranmere in F.A. Youth Cup Round Four
After their comfortable Ninian Park victory over Blackpool in the F.A. Youth Cup, CARDIFF CITY have been handed home advantage over another Lancashire side in the Fourth Round draw yesterday featuring the final 32 teams - this time in the shape of Tranmere Rovers.
Rovers 3rd round tie at Northampton's Sixfields on Tuesday produced an emphatic 3-0 scoreline, ironically the same score that City's youngsters triumphed with versus Blackpool.
Tranmere will be used to travelling, this tie represents the 13th time out of 14 they have been drawn away in the F.A. Youth Cup. The draw saw both sides feature as the final pairing. A date for the fixture is to be confirmed but it has to be played by no later than Saturday, January 17.
